Handpicked Moscato d'Asti

Region: Piedmont, Italy

DOCG*

The Piedmont region in northern Italy is famous for its bold reds of Nebbiolo (Barolo & Barbaresco), Dolcetto and Barbera along with its unique Asti sparkling wines. Moscato d’Asti is a elegant and subtle wine which, unlike the Asti sparkling wines, is slightly 'frizzante' - a term for a light sparkling quality. It is considered a sweet wine, yet does not drink like one, due to the great balance and crisp acids.

TASTING NOTES
This wine is obtained by 100% Moscato Bianco Grapes, cultivated in the vineyards on the beautiful hills around the provinces of Asti, Alessandria and Cuneo, in the Piedmont region. It shows an attractive straw-yellow colour with golden highlights. The aromatic bouquet displays notes of white flowers and fruits such as peach, apricot and orange. On the palate, it is delicately sweet, aromatic and fresh, with a low alcoholic content which makes it particularly delightful.

FOOD MATCHING
This wine is ideal with rich pastries, fruit and fine chocolates and perfect for all occasions: parties, celebrations, dinners, lunches, as an aperitif as well as a dessert wine. As one of the most refreshing wines in the world, Moscato d’Asti is a wine intended for the pure and simple pleasures, especially on a hot summers day and should be served
chilled

Moscato Oltrepo Pavese Piccolo

Region: Lombardy, Italy

DOCG*

This delicate, slightly frizzante wine hails from the Lombardy region of Northern Italy. Pale yellow in appearance with lovely golden hues - a delightfully fragrant and aromatic wine with floral notes of orange blossom mixed with tropical fruits and a touch of wild honey. A delicious creamy mousse with sweet melon fruits, soft but lively and lingering persistence is well balanced with a touch of acidity.

Often referred to by the Italians as their favourite brunch wine, it should always be served refreshingly chilled.
